Gretna Fire Chief Rod Buethe told the Associated Press that Graham and his family escaped unharmed from the blaze, which he says likely was touched off by a lightning strike.
He says the state fire marshal's office is investigating. Graham didn't immediately return a call from The Associated Press.
